If you haven't seen Best Worst Movie, you really should.

Grizzly Man is the only documentary I own.

Do I need to see Troll 2 before checking that out? Haven't seen it yet
Posted on 10/31/11 at 10:34 pm to Leauxgan
You should watch Troll 2 just for its own merits, but the great thing about the documentary is that it's not really necessary to enjoy the macro idea of how "cult films" or more specifically "so bad they're good" films come to prominence.

The Cove
I dunno.
I really how they got the footage they needed, but what separates a dolphin from a tuna or cow, and what is humane and what isn't across cultures?

Dolphins can recognize themselves in a mirror! That makes them more worth saving, apparently.

Recently watched it, and the first three episodes are awesome. Slows a bit after that.

Ok. So they are self-conscious.
What about tests for other animals besides the mirror test?
I think queen ants are self-conscious. And the social ordering among hymenopterans is more intricate than a dolphin noticing it has a spot on it.
A dolphin is so conscious that it committed suicide!
I'm not trying to rag on dolphins. I love the things. I know their story, their complete history and pre-history. I even saw a handful this last weekend. The thing is in The Cove you have people saying that the dolphins could easily communicate their feelings and the humans could interpret them and knew exactly what they were feeling from afar.
